The benefit of bbPress is that it is very easy to customized and integrates with WordPress without any problems (Took me about 30 seconds to integrate.) The problem is that there are several very good features missing. And not many decent themes either.

bbPress is stable and will be supported for a long time, but right now the developers are focused on turning bbPress into a plugin for WordPress instead of being a standalone application.
